Note. Standard errors are corrected for intra-cluster correlations due to clustered sampling.
↵a Pseudo R² is defined as Var(X ^′γ)/[1 + Var(X ^′γ)]
↵b Regressors in Column 2 include age, age squared, dummy for married, unearned income, 3 ethnicity dummies, father and mother’s education level and share of nonfarm employment by age cohort. Regressors in Column 3, in addition to above regressors, include village-level fixed effect.
